Of the 17 participants assisted by PKM partners, namely the Nurul Ihsan Foundation, only 3 participants liked online schools because their time was flexible and could be helped by their parents and siblings at home. the remaining 14 participants said they did not like online or online schools because the lessons were difficult to understand and there were many assignments, the rest were related to wasteful quotas, missing teachers and playing with friends. In this community service activity, the Lecturer of the D III Public Relations Program at the State University of Jakarta socialized the importance of empowering communication, both interpersonal communication, group communication and mass communication to overcome the problems faced in online learning in order to foster enthusiasm and learning achievement during a pandemic.
